The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, in Borno State has dismissed its House of Assembly candidate, Mohammed Bunu, over alleged involvement in campaign activities linked to the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
The decision was communicated in a letter dated October 25, 2026, signed by the NDC state Deputy Chairman, Umar Fema.
The letter said the allegations stemmed from campaign materials bearing the ADC logo, the slogan “SABON TAFIYA, SABON SALO,” and the names and photographs of Atiku and Bunu.
According to the letter, the disciplinary process began at the Hausari Ward level before the matter was referred to the Maiduguri Metropolitan Council, MMC, party leadership for investigation.
Fema said the ward executive invited Bunu to respond to the allegations on October 23, but he did not attend.
He was invited again on October 24 to appear before an investigation committee but allegedly failed to attend.
The MMC party chairman, Adamu Ibrahim, subsequently endorsed the recommendation for disciplinary action and forwarded it to the state leadership.
The NDC said it decided to dismiss Bunu after considering the allegations and reports submitted through its disciplinary process.
